Funky Frog brings to you this fabulous 3CD box set of 60 big worship songs for your little ones.

Reviewed by Anthony Longville

Kiddie heaven or parent nightmare? This is a 3CD set which does what it says on the tin. A mix of children's songs and adult, child friendly worship songs. The bumper booklet contains all the lyrics, but if you're looking for other information, this is restricted to "Compiled by: Soundhouse." The styles are mixed too with rocking arrangements with adult vocals backed by children (or even in some cases no child vocals at all) to those oh so sweet or sometimes not so sweet children only vocals. The kiddie variety of vocal it typified on the vineyard classic "Hosanna". Predictably there are a large number of songs from Doug Horley and Ishmael. In addition you'll find composers such as Noel Richards (also featured vocally), Delirious? and Matt Redman. Only on an album like this could you find a song like Redman's "Once Again" shortly followed by Ishmael's "Tummy Button Song". I am sure that for children this is one to enjoy (they won't care about the irritating lack of artist credits) and could be a useful resource for those working with children, though they'll have to do quite a bit of digging to do to locate the best tracks.
